My America

Chapter 103: Vertical

There are many powerful but unknown companies in this world, just like Edison and Tesla. Westinghouse Electric is a company of this type in the future generations. This is a company that is evenly matched with General Electric. Its industry covers refrigerators, From color TV to nuclear energy and electronics.

Westinghouse Electric is one of Tesla's main bettor, and then Westinghouse Electric launched a series of innovations on AC, and even once hired Nikola Tesla as a consultant. In 1891, Westinghouse Electric built the world's first industrial AC power supply system. In the industrial field, Westinghouse Electric is also one of the important manufacturers.

However, during a series of mergers and acquisitions and reorganizations in Mogen, Westinghouse Electric is also under pressure from General Electric. In the stage of forcible double arrogance, Pestle is obviously not bad at the technical level, but it is difficult to start business, and the popularity is not the same as that of General Electric.

Westinghouse ’s Westinghouse is also the main sponsor of Tesla. The reason why Tesilai won the current battle with Edison, Westinhouse played a huge role, but I do n’t know why. In the time after this, Westinghouse did not give Tesla enough support.

Pennsylvania became the second state to join the Federation. The state has been known for religious freedom and political democracy since its inception, and it has had a great influence in North America. Many important chapters in American history were written in Pennsylvania. Because the state is located in the middle of the thirteen states, there are six states in the north and six states in the south, plus the central role of the state during the independence of the United States.

Pennsylvania ’s excellent coal quality, combined with the iron ore transported by water from the Great Lakes region, has developed a large-scale steel industry, and subsequently discovered oil, which has become an important factor in the rise of Rockefeller. Field's eyes are simply a place of natural selection, and the political position of the pestle on the dividing line between north and south is extraordinary.

Another feature of Pennsylvania is that the largest number of single ethnic groups are German immigrants, so a large number of German immigrant riches represented by Rockefeller have appeared.

Sheffield believes that in essence, Westinghouse is not an opponent of Morgan's control of General Electric. Now the reason why it is not inferior to GE is because Morgan looked away and put Bao on Edison instead of special. Slah has caused the current dilemma. The follow-up can use his more powerful strength to not go back, but sooner or later he will fall into the law of true fragrance.

Westinghouse Electric is a winner in the tuyere, find a new breakthrough in technology, and then rely on technological victory to expand, rather than directly rely on the weight of financial strength to expand. The advantage of this is that even in the fierce competition, Westinghouse can still ensure that it has a sufficiently high profit. Westinghouse Electric now corrects the dividend of enjoying this correct judgment.

Knowing this, Sheffield understands that Westinghouse is now in a stage where it feels good to itself, so it cannot be taken lightly. For the weight of its own side in the family, he agreed to an unequal treaty that is comparable to the panda loan. Little Rockefeller came to Pennsylvania together. In fact, until now, Sheffield did not know whether the Rockefeller family, who had pitted thousands of oil workshops in the early years, would have a positive or negative effect on their trip to Pennsylvania.

In fact, Sheffield just thought too much, and forgot that he was communicating with a weak capitalist, not a group of farts. In the eyes of the capitalists, the Rockefeller family from Pennsylvania is naturally unquestionable. Successful people, my role model.

Not every company is like Carnegie, and it is very important to regard the holiday between the early years, not to mention that Westinghouse Electric and Standard Oil Company have no holiday at all, on the contrary, they are very willing to have a strong friend.

The relationship between entrepreneurs in the United States is very complicated. Your enemy is not necessarily the enemy of your friend. Your ally may have a very good relationship with your enemy. This intricate relationship is not a sentence or two. clear. For example, Westinghouse ’s founder, Westinghouse, was early known for inventing air brakes. When Westinghouse first spoke to railroad giant Cornelius Vanderbilt about his invention, Fan De Bilt described the whole idea of ​​using air to stop the train as nonsense and disdain. However, it soon proved that Vanderbilt's claims were truly nonsense, and Westinghouse's airlock spread like wildfire.

Although Vanderbilt offended Westinghouse, it became an important promoter for Rockefeller to become an industry giant. Now that the Vanderbilt family has fallen into the hands of a group of heirs who enjoy life, Westinghouse has become a competitor to Edison and Morgan behind him.

Another thing is that Westinghouse and Siemens of the German Empire have a very close relationship, and they also belong to a group of people in technical exchange with Sheffield.

It was a sunny day. Sheffield and Rockefeller Jr. formed a strong but sparse combination. They came to the Westinghouse headquarters in Pennsylvania and visited the business giant, Westin House, who was the same generation as Rockefeller Morgan .

Westinghouse is only fifty years old, and is a young man compared to many contemporary business wizards. But it is also because he kept a clear head and accepted new things very quickly that he took the risk of betting on Tesla and became a famous electric company in the Republic. If Morgan did not make an electrical merger, the current First Electric Company It should have been Westinghouse Electric.

"The two young masters misunderstood. Westinghouse and General Electric are normal commercial competitions. In fact, the relationship is far less bad than others imagine!" Facing the most powerful partner in the history of the United States, Westinghouse naturally came forward in person. After learning about the other party's intentions, he said that his company's relationship with GE was very good.

"People don't talk secretly, Morgan hasn't exerted its strength. During the acquisition and reorganization of Tin, GE's strength has surpassed Westinghouse Electric. Mr. Westinghouse should not refuse the help of a friend Not a friend yet. "Before Sheffield spoke, Rockefeller Jr. said first," Mr. Westinghouse is a pioneer, and I do n’t need a junior to teach here. "

"The second goal has always been very clear, and the first one is usually only the nearest one. Westinghouse should not refuse the help of others." Sheffield did not conceal his intention to be together, followed closely by the small Rockefeller showed his intention behind.
